Indecision 2012

Happy election day, [American] Minis! Hope you all got out to the polls today and cast your vote.

Today I'll be heading up to New York City to cover the Comedy Central Indecision 2012 party in Times Square. One, this is my first time going to NYC. Two, Comedy Central! I'm really excited. If you want to keep up with what I'm doing, be sure to follow @urbanoutfittes on Twitter and Instagram. I'll be Tweeting and Gramming from my personal accounts a little as well (@jessiebarber on Twitter and @chaplinnn on IG).

I decided on a patriotic red, white and blue theme for the party. Heck, why not? Luckily, I had most of the pieces, but just had to round up a couple of items to complete it. I scored these ridiculously sparkly stilettos (which is strange because I almost always wear wedges) at Forever 21 for eight bucks. Nothing like post-fall formal sales for knock-around shoes!

I think my favorite part has to be the bow tie. I've been flirting with the idea of neck ties and such for a while. I really wanted an American flag bow tie, but this gingham number was a nice compromise.

If you're watching the election coverage, I recommend Comedy Central. I mean, it's Comedy Central. At the very least you'll have a good laugh no matter which nervous side you're on!
